driver core: Allow device_move(dev, NULL).
If we allow NULL as the new parent in device_move(), we need to make sure
that the device is placed into the same place as it would if it was
newly registered:
- Consider the device virtual tree. In order to be able to reuse code,
setup_parent() has been tweaked a bit.
- kobject_move() can fall back to the kset's kobject.
- sysfs_move_dir() uses the sysfs root dir as fallback.
